Tough Love

What if this all pans out like you said
And I outlive all my family and friends?

What's up?
Well, nothing much
I've been losing touch the past few months
It's all at once
Or only for a moment

You loved the smell of the smoke until it got in your clothes
I've got some skin that I won't ever show
What if this all pans out like you said
And I outlive all my family and friends?
And if they don't reach out, we'll never speak again
Well, don't let it get to your head
But where else would it get?

Take a picture
'Cause it lasts longer than your brain
I've got a photographic mеmory
But each picture is of your face

You stoppеd believing in ghosts
Now you just haunt broken homes
I've got some skin that I won't ever show
The short end of every wishbone

What if this all pans out like you said
And I outlive all my family and friends
If they don't reach out we'll never speak again
Well, don't let it get to your head
But where else would it get?

What's up?
Well, nothing much
I've been losing touch
The past few months
It's all at once
Or only for a moment
(A moment)

And how the fuck
Do you show tough love?
I'm not that tough
I can't take much
Is it just my luck?

What if this all pans out like you said
And I outlive all my family and friends
And I can't believe I'm doing this again
When everyday is a new means to an end
I never got used to it
